with

repo init -u https://github.com/Shaggy013/manifests.git -b Raxda_12.1 -m default.xml

Couldnt care less about your image. I shared the news about google making Android 13 TV available. Probably wont even work with the Rock 5B. No need to be whinning. Is that a problem to share some good news to you here? I guess all my posts are useless to you anyways :face_with_hand_over_mouth: byeee.

yeah, new update. thanks sir
but what do you mean by 4k and 1080p, is it for actual UI resolution or 4k resolution being available in youtube app?

based on this manifest line, are we expecting AV1 playback to make a comeback?

Sure android 13 works on the 5b , if you looked good most is from a a13 build since months :rofl:

and that is just a default android lib

Well it is think a common rockchip issue av1 , if you look around every board has the same problem with av1 on android .

the 4k and 1080 is the setting of the gui ,you notice the diffrence

i see, good to know :+1:

Use balenaEtcher to write gpt.img to Emmc or microsd card. Update.img you need RKDevTool and use the Maskrom Button for firmware flash/upgrade. Im sure you can find tutorials online.

Gpt is a full image. Copy to microsd card or emmc using balenaEtcher. Update.img is a full image also. just a different way of writing to Emmc. If balenaEtcher and Gpt.img work for you. Thats all you need.

thank you very much。 but i need the fan to work all the time。where is the fan contrl file ？can i set fan speed？

#239

It’s a PWM fan. I don’t understand the values there but you can just edit a few files and it will follow the rules there. But I never really found an accessible explanation.

thank you。But this is the same as the thc013‘s firmware。The fan starts to work at about 50 ℃。The quiet fan I use can work all the time, and there is no noise。。

#242

ever thought to just connect the fan to a not controlled pin ?

like the 5v gpio pins for example !!!

there is no fan controller app in android and if you like one go ahead android sources are availible

#243

@thc013 the fan is controlled in a temperature dependent way on Radxa android.

#244

is it controlled in a temperature way if you connect it to the 5v ?

like i said if you want it running all time just connect it to the 5v gpio like everybody does

and connect it to the fan pins if you dont want it run all the tiime like the rest does

and a python linux script wont help .
